That's because a girlfriend of mine told me that she got skin problems for having facials regularly. The best massage I ever had was in India. We had a Nepalese girl who did housekeeping, babysitting, dog-sitting, and she'd give me a massage with coconut oil and a hair massage with olive oil (which cost a fortune in India at the time, it was around 1992). Downstairs of our builing here we have a gym and they have a hamman...I always wondered what it is. Now I know, thanks to you!Saucy Sicilianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10044337117600868975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316792173764568160.post-12871699918620796672011-03-27T15:46:47.422-07:002011-03-27T15:46:47.422-07:00Hilarious!

I say allegedly as I haven't been on account of them only being for women. Mrs legend swears by them. I remember going to london as a very innocent 15 year old and paying for a massage at one of the less salubrious establishments. I paid for an "assisted shower", and was shown ushered into a cubicle the size of a phone box. After a few minutes of excited anticipation, the door opened and someone handed me a bar of soap.

But the women (I think they were female, but there weren't many clues!) masseuses were pretty no-nonsense - they didn't exactly make small talk! Glad you had a good 'Fresh' experience.
